Di-secondary octyl glutarate (Di-n-pentyl adipate) is an organic compound with the formula C16H30O4. The following is a brief description of its nature, use, preparation and safety information:
Nature:
Di-sec-octyl glutarate is a colorless, odorless liquid that is soluble in common organic solvents such as alcohols and ethers. It has a low vapor pressure and relatively low toxicity.
Use:
The main use of di-secondary octyl glutarate is as a plasticizer and lubricant. It can be used in rubber products, plastic products, artificial leather, ceiling film and paint industries. Due to its good lubrication performance and stability, it can also be used as an additive for lubricating oils.
Preparation Method:
Di-secondary octyl glutarate can be synthesized by adding secondary octanol to the glutaric acid solution and performing an esterification reaction under the action of an acid catalyst. The reaction conditions usually need to be carried out at a temperature of several tens to one hundred degrees Celsius.
Safety Information:
Di-sec-octyl glutarate has lower toxicity and risk under normal use conditions. However, it is still necessary to pay attention to protective measures during use or operation. Avoid prolonged contact, skin contact and inhalation of di-sec-octyl glutarate. Wear appropriate protective equipment such as gloves and goggles when performing potentially hazardous operations. In case of accidental contact, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical assistance in a timely manner. During storage, transportation and handling, fire and high temperature should be avoided, and a well-ventilated environment should be maintained.
